From reading various forums I have noticed that weight gain seems to be a frequent side-effect to Lexapro. My doctor added Strattera as an adjunct to Lexapro. Strattera, although indicated for ADHD, can be used as an adjunct to another antidepressant. Evidently, Strattera is similiar in composition to Welbutrin. While Welbutrin made me very sleepy, the Straterra doesn't. However, Strattera has knocked out the jitteriness and increased appetite I was experiencing on Lexapro. When Lexapro was increased to 20mg it just made me very sleepy. Is anyone else taking Strattera in combination with an antidepressant?
